Walking the Tightrope: Balancing Delicate Inflammation Response to Eradicate Acute Myeloid Leukemia
Authors: Alexandre Puissant, Hind Medyouf
Journal: Cancer Discovery (2022)

Ellegast and colleagues show that monocytic acute myeloid leukemias (AML), enriched in inflammatory and immune gene sets, exploit a transcriptional repressor-namely, IRF2BP2-to mitigate their cell-intrinsic inflammatory output and ensure their maintenance. IRF2BP2 ablation results in heightened inflammatory signals that reach a set point that triggers apoptotic AML cell death in an NF-κB-IL1β-dependent manner. The study identifies IRF2BP2 as a cell-intrinsic vulnerability with potential therapeutic significance in monocytic AML. See related article by Ellegast et al., p. 1760 (6).

Authors: Jason A. Willis, Michael J. Overman
Journal: Cancer Discovery (2022)

The lack of clinical activity from various immune-checkpoint blockade approaches in mismatch repair- proficient (MMRp) colorectal cancer has demonstrated a critical need for novel approaches. In this issue, Crisafulli and colleagues provide proof of concept for the induction of hypermutability through the use of temozolomide as a potential pathway for enabling a productive anti-PD-1 immune response in MMRp colorectal cancer. See related article by Crisafulli et al., p. 1656 (1) .

Sickle Cell Disease
Authors: Patricia L. Kavanagh, Titilope A. Fasipe, Ted Wun
Journal: JAMA (2022)

<h3>Importance</h3> Sickle cell disease (SCD) is an inherited disorder of hemoglobin, characterized by formation of long chains of hemoglobin when deoxygenated within capillary beds, resulting in sickle-shaped red blood cells, progressive multiorgan damage, and increased mortality. An estimated 300 000 infants are born annually worldwide with SCD. Most individuals with SCD live in sub-Saharan Africa, India, the Mediterranean, and Middle East; approximately 100 000 individuals with SCD live in the US. <h3>Observations</h3> SCD is diagnosed through newborn screening programs, where available, or when patients present with unexplained severe atraumatic pain or normocytic anemia. In SCD, sickling and hemolysis of red blood cells result in vaso-occlusion with associated ischemia. SCD is characterized by repeated episodes of severe acute pain and acute chest syndrome, and by other complications including stroke, chronic pain, nephropathy, retinopathy, avascular necrosis, priapism, and leg ulcers. In the US, nearly all children with SCD survive to adulthood, but average life expectancy remains 20 years less than the general population, with higher mortality as individuals transition from pediatric to adult-focused health care systems. Until 2017, hydroxyurea, which increases fetal hemoglobin and reduces red blood cell sickling, was the only disease-modifying therapy available for SCD and remains first-line therapy for most individuals with SCD. Three additional therapies, L-glutamine, crizanlizumab, and voxelotor, have been approved as adjunctive or second-line agents. In clinical trials, L-glutamine reduced hospitalization rates by 33% and mean length of stay from 11 to 7 days compared with placebo. Crizanlizumab reduced pain crises from 2.98 to 1.63 per year compared with placebo. Voxelotor increased hemoglobin by at least 1 g/dL, significantly more than placebo (51% vs 7%). Hematopoietic stem cell transplant is the only curative therapy, but it is limited by donor availability, with best results seen in children with a matched sibling donor. While SCD is characterized by acute and chronic pain, patients are not more likely to develop addiction to pain medications than the general population. <h3>Conclusions and Relevance</h3> In the US, approximately 100 000 people have SCD, which is characterized by hemolytic anemia, acute and chronic pain, acute chest syndrome; increased incidence of stroke, nephropathy, and retinopathy; and a life span that is 20 years shorter than the general population. While hydroxyurea is first-line therapy for SCD, L-glutamine, crizanlizumab, and voxelotor have been approved in the US since 2017 as adjunctive or second-line treatments, and hematopoietic stem cell transplant with a matched sibling donor is now standard care for severe disease.
Abstract P4-15-17: A novel targeted engineered toxin body for treatment of HER2 positive breast cancer
Authors: Erin K Willert, Sangeetha Rajagopalan, Garrett L Robinson, Brigitte Brieschke, Jennifer Erdman, William Null, Jack P Higgins
Journal: Cancer Research (2015)

Abstract The HER2 receptor is overexpressed in 20-30% of breast cancers. HER2 overexpression in breast cancer has been successfully targeted by both antibody and antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) approaches. The recently approved trastuzumab-emtansine (T-DM1, Kadcyla) ADC has shown promising clinical results in patients refractory to trastuzumab (Herceptin). Because DM1 is a chemotherapeutic and refractory breast cancer patients have typically progressed through several rounds of chemotherapy, we are developing a new targeted therapy approach utilizing a novel mechanism of action. MT-2H74 is an engineered toxin body comprised of the trastuzumab single chain variable fragment (scFv) and a modified ribosome-inactivating protein derived from Shiga-like toxin 1 A (SLT-1A). We have proprietarily modified SLT-1A for reduced immunogenic potential and increased stability. MT-2H74 selectively binds HER2-expressing breast cancer cells, and exerts a potent HER2-specific cytotoxic effect on several tested cell lines. MT-2H74 demonstrates effective cell kill at picomolar concentrations on cell lines expressing high levels of HER2 and is not cytotoxic to HER2 negative control cell lines. Multi-drug resistance transporter 1 (MDR1) has been reported to confer resistance to chemotherapeutic and ADC treatments, such as direct T-DM1 cell kill; however, MT-2H74 displays cytotoxic activity against HER2 transfected NCI/ADR-RES cells known to express MDR1. Murine models are under investigation to determine therapeutic efficacy in vivo. MT-2H74 is a promising HER2-targeted therapeutic agent against breast carcinomas with a unique mechanism of action and is currently under further development.

The Use of Point-of-Care Bacterial Autofluorescence Imaging in the Management of Diabetic Foot Ulcers: A Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial
Authors: Sara Rahma, Janet Woods, Sarah Brown, Jane Nixon, David Russell
Journal: Diabetes Care (2022)

OBJECTIVE To estimate comparative healing rates and decision-making associated with the use of bacterial autofluorescence imaging in the management of diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs). RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS This is a single-center (multidisciplinary outpatient clinic), prospective pilot, randomized controlled trial (RCT) in patients with an active DFU and no suspected clinical infection. Consenting patients were randomly assigned 1:1 to either treatment as usual informed by autofluorescence imaging (intervention), or treatment as usual alone (control). The primary outcome was the proportion of ulcers healed at 12 weeks by blinded assessment. Secondary outcomes included wound area reduction at 4 and 12 weeks, patient quality of life, and change in management decisions after autofluorescence imaging. RESULTS Between November 2017 and November 2019, 56 patients were randomly assigned to the control or intervention group. The proportion of ulcers healed at 12 weeks in the autofluorescence arm was 45% (n = 13 of 29) vs. 22% (n = 6 of 27) in the control arm. Wound area reduction was 40.4% (autofluorescence) vs. 38.6% (control) at 4 weeks and 91.3% (autofluorescence) vs. 72.8% (control) at 12 weeks. Wound debridement was the most common intervention in wounds with positive autofluorescence imaging. There was a stepwise trend in healing favoring those with negative autofluorescence imaging, followed by those with positive autofluorescence who had intervention, and finally those with positive autofluorescence with no intervention. CONCLUSIONS In the first RCT, to our knowledge, assessing the use of autofluorescence imaging in DFU management, our results suggest that a powered RCT is feasible and justified. Autofluorescence may be valuable in addition to standard care in the management of DFU.
Escalating and De-escalating Temporary Mechanical Circulatory Support in Cardiogenic Shock: A Scientific Statement From the American Heart Association
Authors: Bram J. Geller, Shashank S. Sinha, Navin K. Kapur, Marie Bakitas, Leora B. Balsam, Joanna Chikwe, Deborah G. Klein, Ajar Kochar, Sofia C. Masri, Daniel B. Sims, Graham C. Wong, Jason N. Katz, Sean van Diepen
Journal: Circulation (2022)

The use of temporary mechanical circulatory support in cardiogenic shock has increased dramatically despite a lack of randomized controlled trials or evidence guiding clinical decision-making. Recommendations from professional societies on temporary mechanical circulatory support escalation and de-escalation are limited. This scientific statement provides pragmatic suggestions on temporary mechanical circulatory support device selection, escalation, and weaning strategies in patients with common cardiogenic shock causes such as acute decompensated heart failure and acute myocardial infarction. The goal of this scientific statement is to serve as a resource for clinicians making temporary mechanical circulatory support management decisions and to propose standardized approaches for their use until more robust randomized clinical data are available.

Efficacy and safety of anti-PD1 monotherapy or in combination with ipilimumab after BRAF/MEK inhibitors in patients with BRAF mutant metastatic melanoma
Authors: Ines Pires da Silva, Danny Zakria, Tasnia Ahmed, Claudia Trojanello, Florentia Dimitriou, Clara Allayous, Camille Gerard, Lisa Zimmer, Serigne Lo, Olivier Michielin, Celeste Lebbe, Johanna Mangana, Paolo Antonio Ascierto, Douglas B Johnson, Matteo Carlino, Alexander Menzies, Georgina Long
Journal: Journal for ImmunoTherapy of Cancer (2022)

Background Patients with V600BRAF mutant metastatic melanoma have higher rates of progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) with first-line anti-PD1 (PD1]+anti-CTLA-4 (IPI) versus PD1. Whether this is also true after BRAF/MEKi therapy is unknown. We aimed to determine the efficacy and safety of PD1 versus IPI +PD1 after BRAF/MEK inhibitors (BRAF/MEKi). Methods Patients with V600BRAF mutant metastatic melanoma treated with BRAF/MEKi who had subsequent PD1 versus IPI+PD1 at eight centers were included. The endpoints were objective response rate (ORR), PFS, OS and safety in each group. Results Of 200 patients with V600E (75%) or non-V600E (25%) mutant metastatic melanoma treated with BRAF/MEKi (median time of treatment 7.6 months; treatment cessation due to progressive disease in 77%), 115 (57.5%) had subsequent PD1 and 85 (42.5%) had IPI+PD1. Differences in patient characteristics between PD1 and IPI+PD1 groups included, age (med. 63 vs 54 years), time between BRAF/MEKi and PD1±IPI (16 vs 4 days), Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group Performance Status (ECOG PS) of ≥1 (62% vs 44%), AJCC M1C/M1D stage (72% vs 94%) and progressing brain metastases at the start of PD1±IPI (34% vs 57%). Median follow-up from PD1±IPI start was 37.8 months (95% CI, 33.9 to 52.9). ORR was 36%; 34% with PD1 vs 39% with IPI+PD1 (p=0.5713). Median PFS was 3.4 months; 3.4 with PD1 vs 3.6 months with IPI+PD1 (p=0.6951). Median OS was 15.4 months; 14.4 for PD1 vs 20.5 months with IPI+PD1 (p=0.2603). The rate of grade 3 or 4 toxicities was higher with IPI+PD1 (31%) vs PD1 (7%). ORR, PFS and OS were numerically higher with IPI+PD1 vs PD1 across most subgroups except for females, those with &lt;10 days between BRAF/MEKi and PD1±IPI, and those with stage III/M1A/M1B melanoma. The combination of ECOG PS=0 and absence of liver metastases identified patients with &gt;3 years OS (area under the curve, AUC=0.74), while ECOG PS ≥1, progressing brain metastases and presence of bone metastases predicted primary progression (AUC=0.67). Conclusions IPI+PD1 and PD1 after BRAF/MEKi have similar outcomes despite worse baseline prognostic features in the IPI+PD1 group, however, IPI+PD1 is more toxic. A combination of clinical factors can identify long-term survivors, but less accurately those with primary resistance to immunotherapy after targeted therapy.

<i>Campylobacter jejuni</i> permeabilizes the host cell membrane by short chain lysophosphatidylethanolamines
Authors: Xuefeng Cao, Chris H.A. van de Lest, Liane Z.X. Huang, Jos P.M. van Putten, Marc M.S.M. Wösten
Journal: Gut Microbes (2022)

Lysophospholipids (LPLs) are crucial for regulating epithelial integrity and homeostasis in eukaryotes, however the effects of LPLs produced by bacteria on host cells is largely unknown. The membrane of the human bacterial pathogen Campylobacter jejuni is rich in LPLs. Although C. jejuni possesses several virulence factors, it lacks traditional virulence factors like type III secretion systems, present in most enteropathogens. Here, we provide evidence that membrane lipids lysophosphatidylethanolamines (lysoPEs) of C. jejuni are able to lyse erythrocytes and are toxic for HeLa and Caco-2 cells. Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) release assays and confocal microscopy revealed that lysoPE permeabilizes the cells. LysoPE toxicity was partially rescued by oxidative stress inhibitors, indicating that intracellular reactive oxygen species may contribute to the cell damage. Our results show that especially the short-chain lysoPEs (C:14) which is abundantly present in the C. jejuni membrane may be considered as a novel virulence factor.
